Enjoying writing about computer architecture. Busy during weekdays but will try to answer DMs asap. Profile pic by Roger Dean. Photo of Ronda taken by me.
I've also improved the overall template of the books. For instance, I've managed to add page numbers in cross references. This was very difficult to make it work for both books and eBooks at the same time.

As always, this is not a lazy copy-paste from the website. All articles have been renovated and optimised for the physical format

By popular request, I’m now offering hardcover editions alongside the paperback version. The new edition is larger, printed with Amazon's premium ink and bound with a sturdy cover. amazon.com/dp/B0F4P5RB25

Those six articles took a lot of work to make it worthwhile for a book... If you check recent commits, you'll find a big one revamping the six articles and adding lots of content. All of these changes made the book experience unique. I hope you enjoy it!

The second book of the Architecture of Consoles series has been released! This time, it compiles the NES, Master System, PC Engine, Mega Drive, SNES, and Neo Geo articles - a group I've named 'The Sprite Decade'. You can find the book here: bookgoodies.com/a/B0F9LQPPNZ

This edition includes extra chapters to help navigate through the technical jargon, recognise supporters and provide the complete bibliography. I've also enhanced the build scripts to print the diagrams using their original vector format, so the result is very crisp.

The first book of the Architecture of Consoles series is now available! This compilation features the Xbox 360 and PS3 analysis for an interesting comparative study. Notice the cover was designed to contrast both systems. You can find the book here: bookgoodies.com/a/B0F4P5V47K

I've been busy experimenting with a new medium that a lot of people have been asking me: An actual book! I think I found a nice balance and I really like the result. Soon I'll be sharing it with friends and supporters to gather more feedback before making it public

I've spent the last weeks improving the build scripts of the website, eBooks and PDFs. Now, hyperlinks in translated articles point to the article of the same language (if available) and PDFs display useful footnotes. This will become handy for producing a physical book!
